Operation
A turbocharger uses the exhaust gases in order to drive a turbine wheel which drives a compressor. The compressor increases the pressure and density of the charge in the engine's cylinders. This will increase the power of the engine above a naturally aspirated engine.The turbocharger consists of a single stage axial flow turbine and a centrifugal air compressor that is connected by a single rotor shaft that is supported on inboard bearings.The exhaust gas that is discharged from the engine cylinders enters the inlet housing for the turbine. The exhaust gas is accelerated through a nozzle ring into the turbine blades. The turbine blades then turn the rotor shaft. The gases then pass through the outlet housing for the turbine to an exhaust pipe.The air that is required by the engine is drawn through the inlet housing for the compressor. The air is then compressed by compressor wheel and a diffuser into the outlet housing for the compressor. The air is then forced into the engine's combustion chamber.
